I'm a philosopher working on a number of topics, most notably metaphysics and the philosophy of logic. I am the full-time philosophy instructor at Owensboro Community & Technical College.

I did my PhD at the University of Connecticut's Philosophy Department, where I was a Research Assistant on the Templeton-funded Humility & Conviction in Public Life project. I was also a member of the UConn Logic Group and the Expression, Communication, and the Origins of Meaning (ECOM) Research Group.

My primary research is on theories of truth and logical consequence. My dissertation, Pluralisms about Truth and Logic, supervised by Michael P. Lynch (chair), Dorit Bar-On, Jc Beall, Stewart Shapiro and Keith Simmons looked at the theoretical connections between truth pluralism and logical pluralism, with a healthy dose of Dummettian anti-realism sprinkled in.

I have a number of other philosophical interests, including social epistemology, animal ethics and the history of analytic philosophy.

I am co-editor, with Andrew Parisi, of the Michael Dummett Project, a (soon-to-be) online resource devoted to the work of Sir Michael Dummett. The project will contain the first full bibliography of Dummett's work across philosophy, theology, voting theory and Tarot history. It will also feature a searchable database of Dummett's philosophical works and a bibliography of philosophical work about and responding to Dummett.
